Best Seasonal Restaurants in North Portland

I’d come here for a nice dinner. Nice lighting and overall ambiance. Good pasta and pizza.

Flavorful display of beautiful South American tapas style cuisine! Wagyu steak tartare, grilled octopus, and Brandt farms flat iron steak were among some of my favorites. The cocktails are delicious and beautifully garnished! I recommend the sangria! We will definitely be back to try the next “what the chef is eating” lineup!

The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We had changed our reservation last minute to add 2 guests one top of the existing 4 plus a baby, and it worked out perfectly. All of our meals and were delicious. Most of us ordered the crab truffle bucatini and steak. Everyone shared with their partners so we all got to have a pasta and secondi. The burratta and bread starter is a must order. It was a perfect evening and I am so appreciative of the staff who were so kind and helpful.

i dont remember the chefs name or any of the staffs but genuinely had a blast with my partner, the whole time we basically was talking about the warm feeling that was brought to us by the staff trully magnificent

Arden consistently delivers amazing dishes, top notch service with a family feel. They do take chances, and occasionally a dish may not be exemplary but when they do they NAIL it!
